Steve, Heart Attack Survivor

http://www.alegent.com
Steve was not the person who you would expect to have a heart attack. He was very active, ate well, lifted weights and ran. His health had always been a priority. So, his heart attack was a complete surprise.

On an otherwise typical Sunday morning, Steve began having extreme chest pain. He was taken to the emergency department at Midlands Hospital where he received an angioplasty and a stent. His heart stopped twice during his procedure. Both times, Steve remembers extraordinary out-of-body experiences.

After recovery, he completed Cardiac Rehabilitation at Midlands. He now runs farther and faster than he did before his attack. The experience has been a strong reminder to live each day fully.
